her childish eyes Is merely one OF know
ing that she could not cope with the
difficulties she had mentioned.
"Never mind those things Marguer-
ite," he cries, passionately. at is not
likely that should burden your young
shoulders with such heavy weights.
Never mind houses and servants. Talk
to me of love!'
She laughed merrily; 1t was such a
clear, cbild-like laugh; 1t fell softly on
the sweet summer air, and might have
saved her from such ardent wooing.
Talk to you Of love-" she replied.
"Why, know less Of that than Of any
thing else"
"Then let me teach your" he cried.
The bright beauty Of her young face
seemed to daze him. His very heart
was set upon winning her; on carrying
her from the cottage home and placing
her In palace which her beauty should
brighten; on clothing her In silk and In
gold; on covering her beautiful figure
with jewels; on giving her such place
in the world that every one should adj
mire her.
He was bent upon carrying her of
and lavishing all the love of his heart
upon her. He had loved no other wom-
an. True, she was very young; q won.

"Yes," replied the other lady; "but
instead of a hat that can be shut up
in the theatre, a man who could be
shut up would be very desirable"

said to me, "An eminent scientist ut
tributes the extraordinary longevity Of
q woman who died in Boston at the
age of hundred and fourteen to the
fact that she never wore high hat in

One of the tall hats bobbed about i'm
dignantly as the owner remarked,
1.-The vigorous health of Philadelphia
man, now in his one-hundredth year, is
due to the fact that he never went out
between the acts to make astronomical
observations through glass. and came
back with breath strong enough to
draw full house."
There is consolation, remarked
the man from the west, "in case there
is fire; the woman with big hat
will have it jammed down over her
eyes, and she will never get out
alive"
The woman with the flower-garden
on the dome of her hat was silent for
moment, and then she said, The man
who keeps his mouth shut never lets
the public know what an ignoramus
he is"
She had the last word, for the west
ern man had temporarily exhausted
his ammunition. He made no reply.
There were several people in our inn
mediate vicinity who made uncompli-
mentary remarks about other people
whc talk too much in the theatre. One
suggested that some people who
brought their mouths with them to
the theatre should be compelled to
leave them outside and get check for
them, as is done with umbrellas at the
art gallery.

THEATRICAL NUISANCES

The principal reason why there is
such large attendance at the theatres
is that on the stage villainy is pun
ishod and virtue is adequately reward
ed, which is seldom the case in real
life. Most people are lovers of justice,
end are willing to pay money to see it
carried ~ct, even if it is only on the
stage.
One day last week. being desirous
of seeing a villain punished, went
early to the theatre, and got very
nice seat in the orchestra. / had an
unobstructed view of the stage. Then
the orchestra, like candidate on
election day, began gradually to fill
up. Then my trouble began, and, as
is usually the case, there was wom-
an at the bottom of it. My trouble
was big tall hat, the ostrich feather
on the top of which seemed to tickle
the big chandelier There was a wom-
an at the bottom of this hat, and she
sat right in front of me, and obstruet-
ed my view of the middle of the stage,
where the villain, as Il general thing,
gives up the ghost.
was congratulating myself with
the hope that the villain might possi-
bly, perish miserably on the side of the
stage, and I'd have chance to gloat
over him, when another female came
in and sat alongside of the one already
mentioned. She had on a hat that
had iiower-garden on the roof; it
closed out entirely the view on the
left. Unless the villain was kind
enough to perish on the extreme right,
my chances of seeing him draw his last
breath were very slim.
| saw very little of what was hap
pening during the first act. There
was man sitting next to me. think
he was from the west When the cur
tain went down, he went out, suffer-
ing with rage, the hats having OBJ
structed his view too. He must have
been medium, for he had a spirit call
between each act. As he passed out,
he almost knocked the tall woman's hat
off with his elbow, and he trod on my
toes besides. When he came back, he
almost knocked the other hat off, and
walked about some more on my corns.
The ladies looked around at him but
he never quailed-such is the stimulat-
| ing effect of a Glove.
He was in talkative mood, and
turning to me, he said, in a whisky
laden whisper, Il wish the men in the
theatres would put on their tall hats,
just to see how the women would like
| it."

The Madras small-causc court has
brought to light gentleman who gains
his living by deyil-extracting. This
highly lucrative employment appears
to be recognized as perfectly legitimate
profession. There was no disguise in
court as to the exact nature of the
claim. In fact the Judge, a native
gentleman, appeared to resent the
skepticism of the defendants pleader
as to the possibility Of casting out devils
and his jocularity at the expense Of the
plaintiffs profession. What, if a doc
tor does not cure. he cannot recover" ,"
his Honor exclaimed on one occasion;
and on another, when the plaintiff )
pleader expressed his disbelief in devil
extracting, he inconsequcntly observed.
''But you believe in haunted houses9''
To this remark the pleader replieds
There may be spiritual manifesta-
ton, from which it would appear that
he is not altogether free from the super
stition which he ridiculed.
The plaintiffs cross-examination was
very diyerting. Diseases, he said were
of three fundamental, spiritual, and
physical. Some physical sicknesses he
could cure by his art, but not every
case. Asked if he could cure love
pains. he replied: THAT is very hard
pain to be cured; even my father could
not cure that He could not cure a
person unless he were a negative.
Other witnesses called described the
nature of the plaintiff treatment and
its success. 1t was inferred that the
evil spirit of the patient in this case
was of the female kind. At the con-
clusion of the evidence the worthy
Judge dismissed the suit, not because
he was Of the opinion that there was
no cause of action, but because there
was no evidence to support the con-
tract sued upon.-The Times Of India.
